Nails, not all good news ↓ ↓

Today I'd like to quickly talk about a "dark side" to nails
I'm one of those people where if I didn't have bad luck, I wouldn't have any luck at all!
So when I got my nails done with fellow blogger and good irl friend Bloomzy last month
I was destined for misfortune haha

Here is what I had done...

It was based off a GILFY staff-chan design I had seen on Mitsu's Universal doll
It was... £25 to have them done, all was well and I was excited to have my first set of falsies
The only problem I though I was going to have was the stars falling off
but that was nothing I couldn't fix

Then whilst out in a club, my friend knocked into my hand and it hurt, a little too much!
I could feel my nail lifting and persumed it was just the acrylic so off to the toilet to inspect
There I saw it was infact MY nail was lifting!!! Omgomgomg, I didn't want to risk it being knocked, especially since the whole finger became sensitive and the nail began to bleed!
I wrapped it up when I got in and once the pain calmed down
I trimmed the acrlying down so it didn't catch

However, it still hasn't healed
I've literally just had my nails taken off and here is how the injured nail looks...

(I hope no one finds it too gruesome, I'm sure it could be worst)
All the paler section of the nail is the area which is lifted from my nail bed
and as you can see it's been cut extremely short!


I know it's not the most interesting or happy of tales however I did feel it was worth mentioning because unfortunatly these things do happen
Don't let it put you off having your nails done at all
I know I will have mine done again once my nail has healed and I'm on a healthier budget
Just make sure when you're having your acrylics put on that the length is managable and practical!

For now I will hide my damage with on of my MANY paints by Barry M


...hmmm which colour should I choose? I have too many hehe

As a Barry M addict, I may review the polishes but in the mean time you can read more from Lanna
